Located just minutes from the heart of Fredericksburg, this private 15+/- acre retreat offers a rare mix of convenience, privacy, and usable land. Enjoy easy access to downtown Fredericksburg’s shopping, dining, and historic charm, along with the extensive retail, restaurant, and everyday conveniences of Central Park. This well-kept 2-bedroom, 2-bath home, built in 1987, offers approximately 1,504 sq ft of comfortable one-level living, while still providing quick access to a nearby Park & Ride, VRE commuter rail, I-95, and convenient routes toward Quantico and Northern Virginia. Set into a hillside for natural efficiency, the home features double exterior walls, durable tile flooring throughout, and a wood stove centerpiece that adds warmth and character. Recent improvements include a new HVAC/AC system, new siding, gutters, select windows, and a metal roof repainted in 2020, giving buyers peace of mind while still allowing room to personalize. For those seeking greater independence, the property also presents excellent potential to be transformed into a self-sufficient off-grid homestead with space for solar, gardens, livestock, and other sustainable living improvements. Outside, a 10x18 patio overlooks the open front field and offers a peaceful setting for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the surrounding countryside. Additional improvements include a run-in shed, a 12x24 powered workshop, and water lines already run toward the pasture area (hydrants needed for completion), creating added flexibility for animals, gardening, or hobby use. The land itself offers an outstanding balance of open space and mature woods, with roughly 5+/- acres cleared and the remainder in timber. Zoned A-1, the property supports a wide variety of rural uses including a small farm, homestead, or rental investment. Strong deer and turkey populations, an established trail system throughout the property, and two conveyed tree stands make this a turnkey setup for outdoor enthusiasts and hunters alike. A rare opportunity to own acreage with infrastructure already in place, a solid home, and a prime location close to town. Property is being sold as-is. Any inspections, studies, or due diligence performed by the purchaser are for informational purposes only. Showings are strictly by appointment only.
